Peter Howarth returned to the Burlington as Head Chef in November 2019, after previously working at The Devonshire Arms Hotel & Spa during his early career.
Peter’s previous experience reads like a who’s who of top regional restaurants. He was Head Chef at The Samling, The Lake District which held three AA Rosettes and, prior to that, Head Chef at Gidleigh Park and The Latymer, both of which held two Michelin stars and five AA Rosettes.
Other notable establishments which have honed Peter’s craft are the two Michelin-starred Winteringham Fields, and the Michelin-starred Longueville Manor, Jersey.
Peter’s love of travel has certainly impacted on his individual style of cooking, which he describes as ‘modern British with world influences’.
When sourcing the superb ingredients that make the dishes what they are, Peter rarely needs to venture much further than The Burlington’s very own doorstep. The Devonshire’s kitchen garden provides a wealth of fresh fruit and vegetables, nurtured by Peter and fellow chefs, with local suppliers delivering top-quality meat, cheese, and poultry daily.
Situated at the southern edge of the Yorkshire Dales, The Devonshire Arms Hotel & Spa is a charming country house hotel in picturesque surroundings.
Home-grown fruit and vegetables from our kitchen garden. Produce reared and caught on the Estate. Each and every ingredient is carefully considered from seed to plate. It’s just one reason that our dining experiences are so spectacular.
